Primeval Thule

Game Master Eltacolibre

Bearer of the Black Book: Arcane magic is not a simple matter of study and practice in Thule. Humans are born with no supernatural powers, of course, and there is no tradition of arcane scholarship among the human cultures of the continent. To master supernatural powers, a human mage or warlock must turn to non-human traditions, which involves seeking out a suitable tutor or deciphering the occult writings of some earlier race...such as the writings found in the Black Book.
The Black Book is a forbidden grimoire of terrible age, passed down through the years from one adept to another. Some say the Book is alive and aware, a demonic entity with a sinister purpose. Others say that the Book exists in many times and places at the same time. Whatever the truth, the mage who possesses it is well on his or her way to becoming one of the most powerful wizards of Thule.

Beastfriend: Thule’s ferocious animals are an everyday threat to a hunter of the tundra or jungle—but for a few warriors with powerful intuition and keen understanding of the natural world, Thule’s beasts are allies, not foes. Beastfriends possess an uncanny ability to communicate with beasts both mighty and small, and frequently befriend the most fearsome predators. A warrior jogging along with a dire wolf or a saber-tooth cat at his side is almost certainly a beastfriend. Beastfriends are extremely self-reliant, but they rarely feel comfortable among other people and do not stay in one place for long.

Dhari Hunter: Natives of Thule’s deepest and most dangerous jungle, the Dhari people are renowned as warriors, guides, trackers, and hunters. Most Dhari hunters are suspicious of civilized folk and have no interest in a softer life, but others are drawn to see the great cities of the coastlands by curiosity or simple wanderlust. Fighting skills and uncanny stealth honed by lethal tribal warfare provide the typical wandering hunter with all he or she needs to earn a living in the city-states.
The Dhari are only one of Thule’s many barbarian tribes, Mighty King, but they are strong, numerous, and respected throughout the continent. They are known to be tough and trustworthy—and fierce enemies when crossed.

Free Blade: Freebooter, mercenary, sellsword—Thule is home to many a bold adventurer looking to earn his fortune with the edge of a sword. The free blade often takes service as an ordinary mercenary if nothing else presents itself, but an adventurer of this stripe is not just a sword for hire. Instead, the true goal of the free blade is to find fame, fortune, or a place in the world, to strike it rich or win a title through some bold masterstroke. Until that opportunity presents itself, the free blade moves from place to place and keeps her nose to the wind.

Golden Sea Corsair: Piracy is all too common in the dangerous waters of Thule. The corsairs of the Kalayan Sea—the great central lake of Thule—are a violent and quarrelsome brotherhood who recognize no law save their own bloody code. It’s not unusual for corsairs to serve as seagoing mercenaries, taking the gold of one city-state to plunder the trade of another. Unfortunately, corsairs are notoriously fickle and untrustworthy, and are quick to change their colors. Individual pirates are free to follow any captain they choose or jump ship when a better opportunity comes along, so a single corsair may over the course of a few months serve as a crewman on half a dozen different galleys; in some ways, the Golden Sea corsairs are a single great horde of marauders who happen to be split up between a score of ships.

Guardian of the Nine: Most people in Thule, both city-dwellers and wilderness tribes, are thankfully ignorant of the alien races and cosmic evils that lurk in the world’s hidden places. The society known as the Guardians of the Nine, however, is not. These priests and scholars constantly shore up the world’s age-old defenses against forces from beyond the Earth, fighting a secret and never-ending war against unthinkable calamity.

Ice Reaver: The fiercest and most warlike barbarians of Thule’s wilderness are those who make their homes in the shadow of the encroaching glaciers. Driven from their once-green homelands by the relentless advance of the ice, these hardy warriors frequently turn to a life of raiding and plunder, pillaging the peoples who live in less harsh climes. The sight of their dragon-prowed longships sweeping down on the coastlands is enough to panic all but the strongest and best fortified cities. While the northern reavers are feared and hated with good cause, not every barbarian from the icy realms comes to pillage. Individual ice barbarians often seek work as mercenaries or guards in the rich southern cities and are highly valued for their strength and ferocity.

Initiate of Mysteries: The priesthoods of Thule’s cities represent a wealthy and powerful social class that jealously guards its prerogatives and secrets—especially the secrets of priestly magic. Those individuals who are initiated into the inner circles of a temple hierarchy gain access to powers that few others understand, but in return they are expected to use their status and their command of magic to advance the interests of the priesthood...and, if possible, the deity they profess to serve.

Jungle Trader: Suspicions run deep between the people of the cities and the tribes of the jungle, but a few intrepid merchants set out to make their fortunes by trading for the ivory, hides, gemstones, and other treasures the jungle offers. Part explorer, part diplomat, and part thief, jungle traders have a reputation as sly, double-dealing cheats and scoundrels, but this notoriety is somewhat undeserved. To survive and thrive in their chosen trade, they must carefully cultivate relationships with dozens of potentially hostile tribes. As a consequence, jungle traders are rumormongers of the first degree, and seem to be the first to hear about anything new in the wilds of Thule.

Katagian Pit Fighter: Most cities in Thule host arenas of one kind or another, but none are so pitiless or bloody as the fighting pits of Katagia. Some pit fighters are free men and women who battle for the rich purses offered by the arena owners, but many more are slaves or convicts doomed to die for the entertainment of the masses. Pit fighters who survive their time in the arena are usually highly sought after as bodyguards and enforcers by various underworld figures—there are few people more intimidating than someone who has killed frequently and publicly for sport.

Myrmidon: Loyal soldiers sworn to fight for city or master, myrmidons are the most disciplined and welltrained warriors to be found in Thule. Every city-state (and most noble houses) retains elite formations of myrmidons for defense against the threats of a savage world. Most myrmidons are naturally expected to stay close to their barracks and serve alongside their fellows, but some are trusted with more freedom of action or retained to act as agents or assassins at large for their masters.

Occult Scientist: Thule is a land mired in ignorance and superstition. Most people see magic in the workings of anything they don’t understand, which includes both supernatural and scientific phenomena. The occult scientist brings a reasoned and deliberate approach to the study of all sorts of matter and energy, seeking understanding of the deepest secrets of the universe. The occult scientist often enjoys a somewhat better reputation than most arcane spellcasters in Thule, since he seeks out knowledge for its own sake. In fact, the occult scientist may even attract the support of wealthy patrons interested in his research.

Panjandrum: Most cities are governed by a despot of some kind or another, and any effective despot builds a loyal base of civil servants to enforce his or her rule. A panjandrum might be a military commander, a magistrate, a vizier, or some other important bureaucrat who wields power in the name of the sovereign. Low-ranking panjandrums are often used as spies, investigators, and diplomats, traveling widely and looking after their city’s interests, while high-ranking panjandrums are usually among the most powerful and wealthy figures in the city.

Quodethi Thief: Thieves’ guilds are a fact of life in any major city, but the city of Quodeth is home to guilds numbering hundreds of thieves. These huge organizations are stronger than all but the richest and most powerful noble houses of other cities, and Quodethi guildmasters think nothing of giving orders that will be obeyed by men and women a thousand miles away. To belong to a guild of Quodeth is to belong to an army of vicious, conniving cutthroats, an army in which one can climb through the ranks by one’s wits, daring, and record of success. While guildmembers constantly scheme for influence and position, they are quick to close ranks when some external foe insults the guild or damages its operations.

Sacred Slayer: Temples are rich and politically influential, which means that most priesthoods acquire many powerful enemies. Sacred slayers are the guardians and avengers of Thule’s temple hierarchies. Serving as bodyguards, agents, and assassins of the priesthoods, sacred slayers are expected to be fanatically loyal and obey the orders of their priestly masters or die in the attempt. The most capable sacred slayers are given dispensation to work as free agents, spying on behalf of the temple and acting in its interests wherever they find themselves.

Soothsayer: Thuleans see hidden meaning in many things—the movements of the stars, dreams, prophecies, and scores of everyday omens and signs. Soothsayers serve barbarian chiefs or civilized nobles as advisers, interpreting the will of the gods and offering guidance in supernatural matters. Many soothsayers are capable practitioners of magic, but not all; some are simply wise, insightful advisers valued for their counsel alone.

Star-Lore Adept: Wizards of any sort are rare in Thule; each city is home to only a handful of true mages, and these individuals are regarded with awe and fear by the people around them. Wizards who dabble in the lore of the Great Old Ones and the antediluvian races of the primordial earth are rarer still. There is no doubt that the star-lore adept’s path to power can be shockingly swift, but the risks they accept would make lesser mages blanch in horror. Few dare to meddle in the business of a wizard who masters such dark and dangerous lore.

Tribal Outcast: Many barbarians leave their native tribes to seek their fortunes in the rich city-states. Naturally, warriors who are held in high honor by their people or who are content with tribal life are not likely to seek their fortunes elsewhere, so a large proportion of the barbarians who find their way to the cities are outcasts of one sort of another. Unable or unwilling to fit in with the tribes of their birth, they are wanderers and exiles in search of a new place in the world.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): You gain a +2 bonus to
Intimidate checks and a +2 bonus to Climb, Ride, or Pro-
fession (Sailor) checks (choose the skill most appropriate to
your tribe). Ice reavers are renowned for their violent ways,
and you are familiar with the hard terrain of your home.

Reaver’s Charge (1st level): You can spend a hero
point to perform a reaver’s charge before initiative is
rolled in an encounter, as long as you are not surprised.
You can also spend a hero point to perform a reaver’s
charge any time you reduce an enemy to 0 hit points
(or less) with a melee attack. This is like spending a hero
point to take an extra standard action, except you must
use the action to charge. If your charge attack hits, you
deal 2d6 extra damage.

Hero points you spend to perform a reaver’s charge
are not permanently expended, and are regained at the
end of the day.

Renowned Raider (6th level): You gain a +4 bonus
on skill checks to interact with mercenaries, raiders, or
pirates—your name is known throughout the fighting
peoples of Thule, and your reputation precedes you.

Reaver Chief (10th level): You can call for raiders
from your homeland to go marauding with you (in-
cluding a ship if they are a seafaring people). Once per
three years, you can raise a horde for a major attack. See
Followers, under narrative benefits.

ice reaver customization options:(again just examples)

Bearslayer: You are a dwarf of a dispossessed clan.
Your people were driven out of their native citadel
years ago. With the loss of their home, they aban-
doned their rightful clan name and took up a name
of exile, calling themselves simply Bearslayers after
the beasts whose home they now shared. Some-
day you intend to be strong enough and respected
enough to lead your people back to their stolen
citadel and reclaim it.

Khatranir Warrior: You are among the last of a van-
ished tribe. Once your people called the heights of
Kha, the Ice Mountain, home. They raided far and
wide, blooding their t’uchuk ice-axes in lands hun-
dreds of miles distant. None were stronger, hardier,
or more widely feared than the Khatranir. But while
you were away on a long journey to the warm lands,
something terrible happened. When you returned
your people were dead, entombed in the snows of
Kha by some dire frost curse. You do not know who
cursed the Khatranir or why, but someday you will
avenge your people.

Rider of Hurgan: You are a warrior of the Hurgan
tribe, known throughout Thule as riders of the
foul-tempered giant elk. Your people are close kin
to the Quodethi, and of all the ice peoples, the most
likely to engage in peaceful trade with the peoples of
the south. For you, raiding is not a matter of survival
or pure bloodthirst—it is a matter of pride, a way to
avenge insults and defend your tribe’s own hunting
grounds. Change is coming to the Hurgan people:
Your tribe must abandon their ancestral lands and
carve out a new home from the lands of the south.
Are you the great chief the wise men see rising in the
smokes of the future?

Ullathi Sea Reaver: The sea is the mother to your
people. The Ullath live on the shores of the icy seas,
sealing and fishing throughout the winter months—
but when the spring comes and the ice breaks up,
they take to their longships and spend the warm
months boldly harrying the coastlands of Thule.
While raiding is a way of life for the Ullath, your
people are also explorers and sea-traders, and have a
driving wanderlust to see new places and find new
things. There are many ways to become a hero to be
sung of down through the years, and you are deter-
mined to find your fame someday.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): You gain a +2 bonus on
Knowledge (arcana), Knowledge (religion), and Sense
Motive skill checks. The best soothsayers understand
that many who seek out their services already know
the answers to the questions they ask, and need only a
little encouragement to see the truth for themselves.

Foretelling (1st level): Once per day, you can
perform a foretelling for one ally within 30 feet.
This requires one minute, and you cannot foretell for
yourself. Roll d20 three times and record the results
in order. You can spend a hero point at any time to
substitute the first d20 roll for a d20 roll made by the
target ally, or made by an enemy attacking the target
ally. The target ally need not be in sight, and you do
not need to be able to take an action or even be aware
of the ally’s situation—you performed your foretelling
earlier, and now it is unfolding. If you have a second
hero point available, you can substitute the second
d20 roll after you use the first, and if you have a third
hero point available, you can use the third roll after
you use the first and second.
Hero points you spend to perform a foretelling are
not permanently expended, and are regained at the end
of the day.

Hear Sooth (6th level): You gain a +2 bonus to
interact with merchants, nobles, and other people of
wealth. In addition, your reputation as a soothsayer
leads powerful individuals to seek out your assistance.
You gain a moderate income from wealthy patrons
who request your counsel (see Income, under narrative
benefits).

Prophecy Revealed (10th level): Once during
each character level at 10th level and above, you
gain a special insight into an important situation or
challenge you face by recognizing the signs of old
prophecies coming true or discerning the meaning of
a powerful omen. This is equivalent to the Inspiration
function of spending a hero point, except it does not
actually require you to spend a hero point. If the GM
determines that there is no additional information or
special insight available, you do not expend this use of
the ability.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): You gain a +2 bonus
on Knowledge (arcana) and Use Magic Device skill
checks. In addition, you gain a bonus language
chosen from the following list: Benthic, Draconic, or
Mi-Go. Adepts who study the lore of alien races often
need to learn how to use items or interpret lore not
meant for humans.

Potent Lore (1st level): You can spend a hero point
as a free action on your turn to increase the caster level
of the next arcane spell you cast by +4. This affects
all level-based variables of the spell you are casting,
including caster level checks such as spell penetration
checks or dispel checks. By calling upon the arcane
secrets of alien races, star-lore adepts can create unex-
pectedly powerful magical effects.
Hero points you spend to call upon potent lore when
casting a spell are not permanently expended, and are
regained at the end of the day.

Mystic Signs (6th level): Through mystic gestures
and motions, you can identify yourself as an initiate in
unearthly lore to creatures that are otherwise hostile to
humans and their ilk. You begin any interaction with
intelligent extraterrene or extraplanar creatures with an
attitude one step better than would otherwise be the
case (Hostile becomes Unfriendly, Unfriendly becomes
Indifferent, and so on).

The Stars Are Right (10th level): Once during each
character level at 10th level and above, you can call
upon powerful alien entities to perform services for
you. This functions as the extraterrene calling spell (see
Chapter 7), except that you can use the spell even if
you are not normally able to cast it. You can use lesser
extraterrene calling (level 10), extraterrene calling (level
11 to 14), or greater extraterrene calling (level 15 to 20).
You need not provide the ally with any payment, since
it has little interest in terrestrial possessions.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): Wandering the wil-
derness has honed your outdoor skills. You gain a
+2 bonus to Knowledge (nature) and Survival skill
checks.

Isolated Action (1st level): You can spend a hero
point as a free action when you make an attack roll
against a target, and if no creatures other than you
are adjacent to that target, you can roll the first attack
roll twice and use the higher of the two results.
Hero points you spend to perform an isolated action
are not permanently expended, and are regained at the
end of the day.

A New Identity (6th level): You pick up the practic-
es of a new life, and while you’ll always have your heri-
tage, you have new experiences that mold you. You gain
the 1st-level Skill Bonuses from a second narrative. You
can only apply the bonus from one narrative at a time.

Triumphant Return (10th level): Your former tribe
is ready for reconciliation. Whether you accept the offer
is up to you, but as a token of sincerity, you have been
given a tribal heirloom. Work with your GM to choose
an appropriate magic item of (up to 25,000 gp in value),
which is yours until you return it to your tribe.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): You gain a +2 bonus to
Bluff checks and a +2 bonus to your Combat Maneuver
Defense.

Resuscitating Action (1st level): You can’t be kept
down for long. You can spend a hero point to heal hit
points equal to your level when you start your turn at
or below 0 hit points. After you’ve used this ability, you
can’t use it again until you’ve had 10 minutes of rest.
Hero points you spend to perform a resuscitating
action are not permanently expended, and are regained
at the end of the day.

Pugilist’s Knack (6th level): You gain a +2 bonus to
your Combat Maneuver Bonus.

Expert Trainer (10th level): You’ve started to attract
thugs and would-be gladiators who want to fight like
you do. You gain followers equivalent to guards (see
Followers, under Narrative Benefits). Choose a “home
pit” where you can find these thugs whenever you need
them. Your trainees handle their own upkeep, and they
hang on your every word, doing whatever you say unless
it’s obviously suicidal.

Skill Bonuses (1st level): You gain a +2 bonus to
Handle Animal, Knowledge (nature), and Survival skill
checks, representing your empathy with animals and
your understanding of how and where they live.

Animal Rapport (1st level): You befriend animals
small and large during your travels. You can spend a
hero point on your turn for one of two effects: you can
use a standard action to befriend an animal (functions
as charm animal, but the save DC is equal to 13 +
your Charisma modifier); alternatively, you can use a
hero point in a natural setting to call to the animals
in your vicinity. When you do so, animals hoot and
holler, small animals scurry around nearby, birds and
insects fly in the faces of your enemies, or undertake
other sorts of activity you can effectively narrate in your
current circumstance. Enemies within 30 feet of you
become shaken unless they succeed on a Will Save (DC
10 + ½ your level). This use of the ability doesn’t work if
there are no animals or vermin nearby.
Hero points you spend to perform animal rapport are
not permanently expended, and are regained at the end
of the day.

Natural Understanding (6th level): Your beastfriend
skill bonus increases to +4.

Lord of the Wild (10th level): You gain a loyal ser-
vant in the form of a wolf, great elk, raptor, or similar
animal. This functions like the druid animal compan-
ion ability (see the “Animal Companions” section in
Chapter 3 of the Pathfinder Roleplaying Game Core
Rulebook), except that your effective druid level is
equal to your level – 4. If you already have an animal
companion ability, instead increase your effective druid
level by 2 for purposes of your companion’s statistics. If
the beast dies, or you release if from its bond, you can
recruit a new beast by calling for the beast while spend-
ing 24 uninterrupted hours in the new companion’s
home environment.

One who Speaks to Trees, and Listens to Owls, of the Green Village Forest people, of the greater Clan Dhari, will be played as if he has never seen the world outside his forest. He is wise and very perceptive, so he knows there are things in the world that he has never seen but, everything is new to him. Like a toddler discovering something for the first time. This will be his take on the world. He is also slightly more intelligent than most of his tribesmen, know much more about nature that most of them. The shaman is also very loyal to a fault to his friends, but also believes in a nature balance.

Dressed in leather clothes with wood armor, he walks along with a club in one hand and an owl on his shoulder.

One who Speaks to Trees, and Listens to Owls, of the Green Village Forest people, of the greater Clan Dhari, has never

been away from his forest in his life. This forest is very remote and he has never even saw another type of people other

than the Dhari and Elves. He has spent his life as a Shaman to his tribe. Healing the sick, assisting the elders in

decision making, and many other duties as needed. His name was given to him by tribal elders at the age of 3, as

customary in his tribe. This name was given due to his close bond to nature.

Life was good for a very long time. One day his people began getting sick. Some sort of illness befell his people. One by

one they began to die. He was unable to save them, and soon the whole village was gone. He was all alone. Unable to find

any explanation for this, he decided that this is what the spirits must have need to restore balance to nature.

Soon a decision was made to move along out of his home forest to find other life. He gathered up his belongs and the

total of all tribal gold, as he was the last surviving member of the tribe. After many moon cycles of travel, he found

himself in a village the size of his whole forest. The locals called it Quodeth. He could not believe the amazing things

to be had here. Everything a new wonder to him.

Metamagic Action (1st level): You can use a hero
point when you cast a spell (or use a spell-like power
from a magic item or other source) to apply the effect
of the Enlarge Spell or Extend spell metamagic feat to
the spell, without affecting the spell’s level or casting time. You can also use a hero point to apply the effect of a metamagic feat that you know that increases the spell slot by two levels or less. Hero points you spend to perform a metamagic action are not permanently expended, and are regained at the end of the day.

Overcome the Parameters (6th level): You require
less materials to craft mundane or magic items. Reduce
the creation cost of such items by 20%. In addition, you
do not need to know prerequisite spells when craft-
ing magic items, though if such spells require a costly
material component, those components must still be
expended as part of item creation.

Personal Laboratory (10th level): Through either
your own inventions or the largesse of a satisfied patron,
you obtain a small domicile or run-down manor to use
as your laboratory. Consult with your GM to determine
its layout and location; it is sturdy, but made of ordi-
nary materials, and contains appropriate equipment for
alchemical, biological, or otherworldly investigation and
experimentation. You also gain a laboratory assistant
(hunchback optional) who will do your bidding but rarely leaves your laboratory. You can furnish or expand the laboratory as you wish, and under ordinary circumstances, it’s a reasonably safe “home base” for you.
